Mirror

Murad II was the sultan of the Ottoman Empire from 1421 to 1451 (except a period in 1444 to 1446). He took back the territories in Anatolia that were lost to Timur Lenk in the Battle of Ankara in 1402, and the territories in Europe that were lost to Serbs and Hungarians during the Ottoman Triumvirate.

No, nationmaster.com has plagiarized Misplaced Pages (of course not, since Misplaced Pages is a free resource...) --The Phoenix 09:21, 29 Oct 2003 (UTC)

A Turk can say these without "plagiarizing" at any time you want. We learn these at primary school. With respect, Deliogul 17:58, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

I had to chuckle at the " Mustafa ... then turned his arms against the Greek emperor and declared his resolution to punish the Palaiologos for their unprovoked enmity by the capture of Constantinople." The poor innocent wee lad - this comment does seem a bit off kilter in respect of the long wars between the Byzantines and Turks. Who started it? Hmm ...

Arabic name

The name given as Arabic in the first paragraph is obviously in Arabic script. But is it in Arabic? Turkish was written in Arabic script until the 20th century. My guess is this is simply his Turkish name written in a different alphabet. Rbraunwa 19:05, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

I think its the same, it means murad the second in arabic if the شـ written in شاني was a ثـ and the word would be ثاني, ie, the second, at least in arabic, could someone please make sure if شاني (SHani) means anything in turkish (second maybe ??), if not, its probably a typo.--213.6.8.247 22:37, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

There was a typo in the Arabic script as noted (شـ should indeed have been ثـ), which I've corrected, as well as adding a transcription of the Ottoman Turkish, which simply means—appropriately enough—"Murad II". -Saposcat 19:37, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

Age at beginning of rule

It says in the first paragraph of the Biography section that he began his rule at the age of 18. if he was born in 1404, there is no way he was 18 in 1421. Is one of the dates incorrect, or is the the age wrong? Lord GaleVII (talk) 16:20, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Jalowaz

In Hungarian History, Battle Jalowaz is considered as a major Hungarian victory against Turks. (It was in three months before the battle of Varna) But this battle as well as previous battles in 1443 are not mentioned in the article. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 16:24, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

Two comments

A list of Murat's wifes has been presented. I want to comment on the following:

• Both Tacinüssa and Halime were his wifes and both from Candaroğlu house. Had Murat married to two sisters ? I don't think it was possible. Probably the both names belong to same person.
• According to Prof Yaşar Yücel and Ali Sevim, Murat had married to Melek hatun from Karamanoğlu house. But this name is missing in the list. Nedim Ardoğa (talk) 10:59, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

@علاء: well this actually make the problem in the Arabic wikipedia regime clear. This behaviour is not acceptable. You have to write an edit summary while reverting. Everyone here has the right to know what was his mistake and why his edits were reverted. Unfortunately that is not the case in the Arabic Misplaced Pages regime. Which is why it has very few contributors in it..--SharabSalam (talk) 16:19, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

Please avoid witch hunt --Alaa :)..! 17:59, 6 July 2019 (UTC)

علاء, I don't want to revert you again. The source you brought first of all is in Arabic and it's offline and you didn't provide the number of the page. A reference to an Arabic offline book without providing the page number is like nothing.--SharabSalam (talk) 18:05, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
